We have discussed a number of different savings and investment opportunities out there. However, there are many more. Do a bit of research. Find one type of savings opportunity that is available that we haven’t discussed (in class or in the reading) and find one investment opportunity that is available that we haven’t discussed. For both, briefly describe how those savings/opportunity opportunities work.
In your own words, explain why it makes sense to you that riskier investments should come with larger expected rewards.
In this week, we targeted three learning goal for the course - metacognitive reflection, accessing wellness tools, and social-emotional skills. Write a few sentences as to how this week’s material has helped you progress toward meeting these learning objectives. The learning goal objectives are as follows:
Metacognitive reflection: Students reflect on their own wellbeing in the context of the course topic and develop metacognitive reflection abilities that work to promote transfer of wellness behaviors and skills.
Accessing wellness tools: Students develop tools for improving their physical, social, and/or mental/emotional health and overall college experience.
Social-emotional Skills: Students identify personal social, emotional, and cognitive skills to be practiced and developed; including self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, responsible decision making, relationship skills, and communication skills.
